A team of Global Wind Service UK LTD (GWS) technicians is currently working off Sussex on the installation phase of Rampion offshore wind farm, the first wind farm off the south coast of England.
The full scope of work for GWS includes the installation, and mechanical and electrical completion of a portion of the 116 3.45MW MHI Vestas wind turbines.
MPI Offshore’s jack-up vessel MPI Discovery installed the first of the 116 turbines at the site in early March.
The 400MW project, being built by E.ON, the UK Green Investment Bank plc and Canadian energy company Enbridge, is due to be completed and fully operational in 2018.
